The water hyacinth in a moderately continental climatic condition at a latitude of 43oN can achieve productivity of an average of 18.25 kg/m2 in partially controlled conditions, whereas under natural conditions and under conditions of controlled harvesting, larger amounts of biomass can be obtained. Considering the large amounts of biomass of over 1.5 t/ha per day, i.e. over 180 t/ha per year, produced, water hyacinth can be successfully used in wastewater treatment plants with very favorable economic effects if the biomass generated is used for energy production, as a nutrient or food, and for many other needs. The following models were used to model the dynamics of water hyacinth biomass growth: the exponential model (average MSE 0.3117, average R2 to 0.9793), second-order polynomial model (average MSE 0.0952, average R2 0.9937) and logistic model (average MSE 0.0508, average R2 0.9966). All models have high accuracy; however, the exponential model and the second-order polynomial model give a continuous increase in biomass over time, practically to infinity, without taking into account that under conditions of increased plant density and reduced availability of resources, biomass growth slows down, and therefore, they are not suitable for application in real conditions. The logistic model (average environmental capacity 18.25 kg/m2, average growth rate 0.0571 g/g?day after about 150 days) adequately describes the growth of water hyacinth biomass with high accuracy, which enables the monitoring and control of the process operation and the achievement of the required quality of the treated wastewater.","PeriodicalId":8145,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Biological Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68390390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evidence suggests that certain mechanical stress can affect cell cycle progression and cell proliferation. However, the signaling pathways involved in this process are not well understood. To investigate this, we developed a pressure chamber capable of producing an elevated barometric pressure (EBP) environment of 2?atmospheric absolute pressure (ATA). We then studied the effect of EBP on cell proliferation and its underlying mechanism. Our results show that EBP inhibited cell proliferation by delaying the G2/M phase. Specifically, EBP reduced the expression levels of cell adhesion-related genes and downregulated integrin subunit genes, resulting in weaker interaction between cells and extracellular matrix proteins. In addition, Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1) and cell division control protein 42 homolog (Cdc42) activity was suppressed, and actin assembly was decreased. These findings suggest that the EBP-mediated G2/M phase delay is due to attenuated cell adhesion and actin cytoskeleton assembly, leading to the inhibition of cell proliferation. Our results provide a crucial molecular mechanism for how certain pressure (changes) can negatively regulate cell proliferation. These findings could potentially be used in the future to develop a pressure therapy to inhibit cell proliferation in cancer patients.","PeriodicalId":8145,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Biological Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68390940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein we investigated whether amino acid (aa) substitutions in the HCV core region alone or in combination with IL28B genotypes and RASSF1A/p16 methylation affect the response to PEG-IFN/RBV therapy and liver disease progression. Among 29 examined patients, we found no association between single aa substitutions and response to therapy. However, we observed that patients with the HCV core aa substitution at position 75 and CT/TT IL28B genotypes were nonresponders (NR), (P=0.023). Moreover, these patients had unmethylated RASSF1A. In contrast, most patients (75%) with aa substitutions at position 91 and CC IL28B genotype achieved sustained virologic response (SVR), (P=0.030), and 70% of them had methylated RASSF1A gene. Our results suggest that combined analysis of aa substitutions in the core protein, the IL28B rs12979860 polymorphism, and the methylation status of the RASSF1A gene may help in predicting treatment response to PEG-IFN/RBV in genotype 1b chronic hepatitis C patients.","PeriodicalId":8145,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Biological Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68391043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the data from collected Trichoptera larvae, the similarity, diversity, dominance and population density relationships among habitats were measured. According to the calculated Shannon-Wiener and Simpson diversity index results, the station with the highest Trichoptera diversity was determined at S2, and the station with the least diversity was S14. Similar results were obtained for the calculated population density values. Station S2 was the most balanced station in population density. Thus, biodiversity was directly related to habitat structure, anthropogenic impact and geographical conditions, and environmental factors suppress biological species diversity. It was concluded that species diversity is greater in undestroyed habitats and less in heavily destroyed habitats. In addition, the species that dominate in biodiversity similarity rates prefer their habitat.","PeriodicalId":8145,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Biological Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68390240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study focused on the effects of DML extract on intestinal inflammation in two-kidney, one clip (2K1C) rats. Male Wistar rats were divided into three groups with daily intragastric administration of either saline (control group and model group) or DML extract (treatment group, 50 mg/kg per day) for 4 weeks. In the model and treatment groups, 2K1C hypertension was induced by clipping the left renal artery. The profiles of stool microbiota, the levels of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), the integrity of the gut barrier, oxidative stress biomarkers and inflammatory factors were analyzed in rats supplemented with or without DML extract. This study revealed the alleviation of high blood pressure in 2K1C rats treated with DML extract. The DML extract attenuated gut microbiota dysbiosis in the 2K1C rats by increasing the abundance of the genus Lactobacillus and by decreasing the abundance of Papillibacter, Desulfovibrio and Anaerobiospirillum genera. Treatment with the DML extract increased the levels of SCFAs and repaired the intestinal barrier, it reduced the release of oxidative stress biomarkers and inflammatory factors and suppressed the expression of TLR4 and NF-?B mRNAs. We conclude that the DML extract may alleviate intestinal inflammation by adjusting the profile of gut microbiota and enhancing the intestinal barrier.","PeriodicalId":8145,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Biological Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68390482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four groups of zooplankton were identified, of which Rotifera was the most abundant group, followed by Copepoda, Protozoa, and Cladocera. Zooplankton assemblages were influenced by seasons, as indicated by multidimensional scaling analysis. The number of species and density of zooplankton were lower during the cool period than during the hot period. The increased density of zooplankton in the hot period may have been due to increased phytoplankton density as food sources. Pearson?s correlation coefficient revealed that Rotifera and Copepoda positively correlated with the temperature and pH, and Rotifera was negatively correlated with total phosphorus; a negative correlation was also observed between Protozoa and dissolved oxygen. The microcystin content tended to have a negative impact on specific small species such as Protozoa (Coleps sp.).

The artificial neural network (ANN) learning technique was used to assess the correlations between the recorded NIR-absorbance spectra of the spent dialysate and serum levels of selected uremic toxins. Very good correlations between the NIR-absorbance spectra of the spent dialysate fluid with serum urea (R=0.91) and uric acid (R=0.91) and an excellent correlation with serum creatinine (R=0.97) were obtained.
